To be honest, moving SVG DOM implementation into 'anim' package and moreover
'anim' module is questionable. As a developer I would be surprised by the
request to include 'anim' module dependency in case I need to generate PDF
even there is no animation in my SVG file.

I'd rather expect to have a separate module svd-dom-impl with this stuff.
And for consistency to rename svg-dom to svg-dom-api.
